A. Three solutions B. Unique solution
C. Two solutions D. No solution

21. Reciprocal of 0 is __________.

A. 0 B. 1 C.  D. No reciprocal
Explanation:
Recall that division by zero is undefined. That is, we cannot have zero in
the denominator of a fraction. Therefore, while we could write 0 as 0 / 1,
we could not "flip" this fraction since that would cause division by zero.
Zero has no reciprocal.

is the G.C.D.
B. If the G.C.D. of any two numbers is 1 they are said to be prime
numbers
C. Among the common multiples of given numbers, the least is the
L.C.M.
D. The product of any two numbers is equal to the product of their
G.C.D. and L.C.M.
